May 2024 results
This years President Cup was no different
from the past as the fish take the day off. Bill
Mackintosh had 18 register at IBSP and there
were no fish caught. Carl Hartman had 6 register
at LBI and we have a winner this year. A
congratulations is in order for Paul Karner
#5481 for winning this year's Presidents Cup!
Paul caught a 17-inch Tog to win, nice job Paul!
Paul will receive a NJBBA jacket with the title
" 2024 Presidents Cup Winner " and a new fishing
reel which will be presented at our Annual
Banquet on March 8, 2025. In the past we had
fisherman compete on Brigantine and Corson’s
inlet, there hasn't been an interest in those
areas lately. If anyone would like to fish the
Presidents Cup in Brigantine or Corson’s inlet
or be able to chair the event at those places by
taking registration and such, please get in
touch for next year.
